GENERAL
OVERVIEW
A .G.
Volney Center is a development state company which was incorporated under the
laws of the state of Delaware on March 6, 1997 under the name Lottlink
Technologies, Inc. The intent was to operate vending machines that would sell
lottery tickets. On April 7, 1997, the board of directors decided to change the
name of the company to A.G. Volney Center, Inc. and restate the par value of the
Company’s shares of common stock at per share to $0.001 per share. On the same
date, in a stockholders’ meeting (the “Stockholders Meeting”), the proposed
changes of the Company’s name and common stock’s par value were approved, but
the amendment the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation effecting such changes
was never filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. On
December 31, 1997, the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation was suspended in
Delaware for non-payment of franchise taxes. The Company was dormant until July
18, 2003. On that date, Lottlink Technologies, Inc. filed a renewal of the
Company’s Articles of Incorporation in Delaware. On July 29, 2003, the Company
filed an amendment of the Company’s Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary
of State of the State of Delaware effecting a change of Company’s name Lottlink
Technologies, Inc. to A.G. Volney Center, Inc. as approved in the stockholders’
Meeting.
A. G.
Volney Center was reinstated in the State of Delaware to develop
relationships with companies which purchase factory overruns from manufacturers
and distressed merchandise from retailers at discounts. As a result, it is hoped
that these companies can offer us new high quality products in quantity whereby
the costs to us is substantially discounted (generally around 30% of the
standard wholesale cost for the same product). It is anticipated that we will
primarily sell to retailers; however, we also intend to engage in retail sales
on a limited basis.
On
October 19, 2006, we filed a Registration Statement on Form 10SB (File No.:
0-52269), or the Registration Statement, with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, or the SEC, to register our common stock under Section
12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act.
The Registration Statement went effective by operation of law on December 18,
2006, or the Effective Date, and we have filed all the necessary Amendments in
response to the SEC comments regarding the Registration
Statement. Since the Effective Date of the Registration Statement, we
have become a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act and are
responsible for preparing and filing periodic and current reports under the
Exchange Act with the SEC.
Any
person or entity may read and copy our reports with the Securities and Exchange
Commission at the SEC's Public Reference Room at 100 F Street N.E., Washington,
D.C. 20549. The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public
Room by calling the SEC toll free at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC also maintains an
Internet site at http://www.sec.gov where reports, proxies and informational
statements on public companies may be viewed by the public.
OUR
PRINCICPAL PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
Our
primary business objective is to satisfy and fulfill the demand of retailers for
high quality merchandise at below wholesale costs. Our business plan is to
develop relationships with companies which purchase factory overruns from
manufacturers and distressed merchandise from retailers at discounts. As a
result, it is hoped that these companies can offer us new high quality products
in quantity whereby the costs to us is substantially discounted (generally
around 30% of the standard wholesale cost for the same product). It is
anticipated that we will primarily sell to retailers; however, we also intend to
engage in retail sales on a limited basis.
4
We have
purchased factory overrun and bulk merchandise and continued to make sales. Our
primary business objective is to satisfy and fulfill the demand of retailers for
high quality merchandise at below wholesale costs. We intend to purchase new,
high quality items in quantity whereby we can sell these items immediately to
retailers for an amount which includes a profit to us. We believe we can
maximize net profits by minimizing fixed overhead such as salary and employee
benefits.
To date,
we have purchased items at an aggregate purchase price of $54,353 and resold
products for an aggregate sales price of $65,414. Our sales are made by
selling items purchased wholesale to small business owners for retail. Although
our purchases and sales have been minimal and our expenses far exceed our
revenues resulting in a net loss, we have identified potential suppliers and
have opened accounts with them and continually search for suppliers in New York
State to save on shipping costs. To date, we have not been able to conduct these
business affairs without further capital.
We
anticipate selling nationwide, but our initial focus will be in New
York.
We are
currently looking to find a suitable merger candidate and alternative
financing. Although we have had discussions with various third
parties, no firm commitments have been obtained to
date.
DISTRIBUTION
We
anticipate selling nationwide through the internet, but our initial focus will
be in the New York area. We continually search for suppliers in New York State
to save on shipping and handling costs. We have identified potential suppliers
and opened accounts.
COMPETITION
We face
competition from the larger and more established companies, from companies that
develop new technology, as well as the many smaller companies throughout the
country. For example, the last several years have shown an increase in the use
of larger online sources such as Overstock.com and Ebay.com. These increases cut
into our potential customer base. Companies who have a larger sales force, more
money, larger manufacturing capabilities and greater ability to expand their
markets also cut into our potential customers. Many of our competitors have
longer operating histories, significantly greater financial strength, nationwide
advertising coverage, brand identification and other resources that we do not
have. Our competitors might introduce less expensive or more improved
merchandise. These, as well as other factors, can negatively impact our business
strategy. The competition from larger overstock companies is a very
serious threat that can result in substantially less revenue.
To date,
we have not been able to conduct these business affairs without further
capital.
Our
operations are conducted by David F. Stever, our President, Chief Executive
Officer, and Chief Financial Officer and Director, and Samantha M. Ford, our
Secretary and Director. Currently, and for the near future, Mr. Stever deposits
all payments in our bank account from which he draws upon to make purchases of
inventory. He has also set up accounts with manufacturers and resellers for
purchases. Mr. Stever also prepares advertising material and solicits
sales by personally contacting potential buyers and interacting with potential
customers online. Mr. Stever is aided in his efforts by Ms. Samantha M. Ford on
a part-time basis.
We do not
anticipate hiring any additional personnel or consultants unless and until
further capital is raised.
EMPLOYEES
As of
December 31, 2009, the Company had no full-time employees. Mr. Stever
and Ms. Ford work for the Company on a part-time and as needed
basis.

A
NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This
report (including the foregoing “Description of Business” and the section below
entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations”) contains forward-looking statements that involve risks
and uncertainties. You should exercise extreme caution with respect to all
forward-looking statements contained in this report. Specifically, the following
statements are forward-looking:
•
statements regarding our overall strategy for expansion of our company,
including without limitation our intended markets and future
products;
•
statements regarding our research and development efforts;
•
statements regarding the plans and objectives of our management for future
operations, including, without limitation, plans to explore other non
telecommunication business along with the size and nature of the costs we expect
to incur and the people and services we may employ;
•
statements regarding the future of our company, our competition or regulations
that may affect us;
•
statements regarding our ability to compete with third parties;
• any
statements using the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,”
“intend,” and similar words; and
• any
statements other than historical fact.
We
believe that it is important to communicate our future expectations to our
shareholders. Forward-looking statements reflect the current view of management
with respect to future events and are subject to numerous risks, uncertainties
and assumptions, including, without limitation, the factors listed in “Risks
Associated with Our Business.” Although we believe that the expectations
reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no
assurance that such expectations will prove to be correct. Should any one or
more of these or other risks or uncertainties materialize or should any
underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results are likely to vary
materially from those described in this report. There can be no assurance that
the projected results will occur, that these judgments or assumptions will prove
correct or that unforeseen developments will not occur.
Any
person or entity may read and copy our reports filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 100 F Street NE,
Washington, D.C. 20549. The public may obtain information on the operation of
the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC toll free at 1-800-SEC-0330. The

ITEM
1A. RISK FACTORS
In
addition to the other information in this report, the following risks should be
considered carefully in evaluating our business and prospects:
WE
HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY WHICH MAY NOT BE AN INDICATOR OF OUR FUTURE
RESULTS.
As a
result of our limited operating history, our plan for rapid growth, and the
increasingly competitive nature of the markets in which we operate, the
historical financial data is of limited value in evaluating our future revenue
and operating expenses. Our planned expense levels will be based in part on
expectations concerning future revenue, which is difficult to forecast
accurately based on current plans of expansion and growth. We may be unable to
adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected shortfall in
revenue. Further, general and administrative expenses may increase significantly
as we expand operations. To the extent that these expenses precede, or are not
rapidly followed by, a corresponding increase in revenue, our business,
operating results, and financial condition will suffer.
WE
MAY HAVE TO DISCONTINUE OPERATIONS.
If we are
unable to achieve or sustain profitability, or if operating losses increase in
the future, we may have to discontinue operations. Our expenses have
historically exceeded our revenues and we have had losses in all fiscal years of
operation, including those in fiscal years 2008 and 2009, and the losses are
projected to continue in 2010. Our net losses were $(39,067) and
$ (4,080) for fiscal years ended 2008 and 2009, respectively. We have
been concentrating on the development of our products, services and business
plan. There is no assurance that we will be successful in implementing our
business plan or that we will be profitable now or in the future.
WE
MAY NOT SUCCEED OR BECOME PROFITABLE.
We will
need to generate significant revenues to achieve profitability and we may be
unable to do so. Even if we do achieve profitability, we may not be able to
sustain or increase profitability in the future. We expect that our expenses
will continue to increase and there is no guarantee that we will not experience
operating losses and negative cash flow from operations for this fiscal year or
for the foreseeable future. If we do not achieve or sustain profitability, then
we may be unable to continue our operations.
OUR
OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS HAVE LIMITED TIME TO DEVOTE AND LACK SALES
EXPERIENCE
Our
current officers and directors have experience in retail but not wholesale sales
and have limited time to devote. For example, Ms. Ford will only be able to
devote 10% of her time to the business . Samantha M. Ford, an officer
and director, has approximately two years experience in sales as an associate in
a major retail chain and two years experience as an assistant manager at a
Thrift Store. However, her experience is limited, and she has no experience in
discount or overrun merchandise.
The
amount of time officers and directors devote to our business may be
limited:
Officer/Director
|
Percent
(%) of time to be dedicated to Company
|
David
F. Stever (Pres., CEO, CFO and Director)
|
40%
|
Samantha
M. Ford (Secretary, Treasurer and Director)
|
10%
|
Until we
sustain operations and achieve profitability, we will be unable to retain the
full time services of these individuals or pay either one of them monetary
compensation for their services. The loss of either of them would have a
material adverse effect on our business operations.
7
We will
be required to seek additional financing in the future to respond to increased
expenses or shortfalls in anticipated revenues, accelerate product development
and deployment, respond to competitive pressures, and develop new or enhanced
products. We cannot be certain we will be able to find such additional financing
on reasonable terms, or at all. If we are unable to obtain additional financing
when needed, we could be required to modify our business plan in accordance with
the extent of available financing.
IF
WE ENGAGE IN ACQUISITIONS, WE MAY EXPERIENCE SIGNIFICANT COSTS AND DIFFICULTY
ASSIMILATING THE OPERATIONS OR PERSONNEL OF THE ACQUIRED COMPANIES, WHICH COULD
THREATEN OUR FUTURE GROWTH.
If we
make any acquisitions, we could have difficulty assimilating the operations,
technologies and products acquired or integrating or retaining personnel of
acquired companies. In addition, acquisitions may involve entering markets in
which we have no or limited direct prior experience. The occurrence of any one
or more of these factors could disrupt our ongoing business, distract our
management and employees and increase our expenses. In addition, pursuing
acquisition opportunities could divert our management's attention from our
ongoing business operations and result in decreased operating
performance.
Moreover,
our profitability may suffer because of acquisition-related costs or
amortization of acquired goodwill and other intangible assets. Furthermore, we
may have to incur debt or issue equity securities in future acquisitions. The
issuance of equity securities would dilute our existing
stockholders.
IF WE CANNOT ATTRACT, RETAIN,
MOTIVATE AND INTEGRATE ADDITIONAL SKILLED PERSONNEL, OUR ABILITY TO COMPETE WILL
BE IMPAIRED.
Many of
our current and potential competitors have more employees than we do. Our
success depends in large part on our ability to attract, retain and motivate
highly qualified management and technical personnel. We face intense competition
for qualified personnel. The industry in which we compete has a high level of
employee mobility and aggressive recruiting of skilled personnel. If we are
unable to continue to employ our key personnel or to attract and retain
qualified personnel in the future, our ability to successfully execute our
business plan will be jeopardized and our growth will be inhibited.
BECAUSE
OUR OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS ARE INDEMNIFIED AGAINST CERTAIN LOSSES, WE MAY BE
EXPOSED TO COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH LITIGATION.
If our
directors or officers become exposed to liabilities invoking the indemnification
provisions, we could be exposed to additional un-reimbursable costs, including
legal fees. Our bylaws provide that our directors and officers will not be
liable to us or to any shareholder and will be indemnified and held harmless for
any consequences of any act or omission by the directors and officers unless the
act or omission constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct. Extended or
protracted litigation could have a material adverse effect on our cash
flow.
There is
currently no trading market for our securities, and there is a chance that a
trading market may never develop. However, in the event that we do develop a
trading market for our common stock, the market price of our common stock will
likely fluctuate significantly in response to the following factors, some of
which are beyond our control:
·
|
Variations
in our quarterly operating results;
|
·
|
Changes
in financial estimates of our revenues and operating results by securities
analysts;
|
8
·
|
Announcements
by us of significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic
partnerships, joint ventures or
capital
commitments;
|
·
|
Additions
or departures of key personnel;
|
·
|
Future
sales of our common stock;
|
·
|
Stock
market price and volume fluctuations attributable to inconsistent trading
volume levels of our stock;
|
|
·
|
Commencement
of or involvement in litigation.
|
In
addition, the equity markets have experienced volatility that has particularly
affected the market prices of equity securities issued by wholesale companies
and that often has been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating results
of those companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the
market price of our common stock.
WE
DO NOT ANTICIPATE PAYING ANY DIVIDENDS ON OUR COMMON STOCK.
We have
not paid any dividends on our Common Stock since inception and do not anticipate
paying any dividends on our Common Stock in the foreseeable future. Instead, we
intend to retain any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of
our business.
WE
LACK OPERATING HISTORY
We have
no operating history so it will be difficult for you to evaluate an investment
in our common stock.
We were
formed in 1997 as a vending machine business under the name of Lottlink
Technologies, Inc. but did not commence business at that time. Our business
activities have been limited to amending the Articles of the Corporation on July
29, 2003 to amend the corporate name to A.G. Volney Center, Inc., and contacting
companies that acquire and warehouse inventory from factory overruns and
retailers with overstocks in New York, Pennsylvania, Vermont and Ohio. There is
no assurance that we will be successful in acquiring factory overruns or
overstock merchandise for sale at discount prices.
We do not
have an established source of revenue sufficient to cover our operating costs to
allow us to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going
concern is dependent upon our ability to successfully compete, operate
profitably and/or raise additional capital through other means.
Currently,
there is no market for our common stock. We intend to request that a
broker-dealer / market maker submit an application to make a market for the
Company's shares on the OTC Bulletin Board. However, there can be no assurance
that the application will be accepted or that any trading market will ever
develop or be maintained on the OTC Bulletin Board, pink sheets or any other
recognized trading market or exchange. Any trading market for the common stock
that may develop in the future will most likely be very volatile, and numerous
factors beyond the control of the Company may have a significant effect on the
market. Only companies that report their current financial information to the
SEC may have their securities included on the OTC Bulletin Board. In the event
that the Company loses this status as a "reporting issuer," any future quotation
of its common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board may be jeopardized.
9
OUR
COMMON STOCK IS SUBJECT TO THE "PENNY STOCK" RULES OF THE SEC AND THE TRADING
MARKET IN OUR SECURITIES IS LIMITED, WHICH MAKES TRANSACTIONS IN OUR STOCK
CUMBERSOME AND MAY REDUCE THE VALUE OF AN INVESTMENT IN OUR STOCK.
The
Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the
definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity
security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an
exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For
any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules
require:
·
|
that
a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny
stocks; and
|
·
|
the
broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the
transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to
be purchased.
|
In order
to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or
dealer must:
·
|
obtain
financial information and investment experience objectives of the person;
and
|
·
|
make
a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are
suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and
experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of
transactions in penny stocks.
|
The
broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a
disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock
market, which, in highlight form:
·
|
sets
forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability
determination; and
|
·
|
that
the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the
investor prior to the transaction.
|
Generally,
brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the
"penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of
our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our
stock.
Disclosure
also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public
offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the
broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the
securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of
fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent
disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and
information on the limited market in penny stocks.
WE
WILL ENCOUNTER SUBSTANTIAL COMPETITION
The
discount market for wholesale and retail merchandise is
highly competitive and involves a high degree of risk and
there is no assurance that we will be able to operate profitably.
In the retail segment of our business, which will be minimal, we will
experience substantial competition with other entities such as Dollar
Discounts, All-A-Dollar, Dollar General and Discount Houses in the
sale and marketing of merchandise all of which have greater
name recognition and experience.
The
Company does not own property. Our operations are conducted from our President’s
personal residence located at 124 Lincoln St. South Liverpool, NY 13088. We do
not pay rent for the use of these facilities and therefore we have no
lease.

7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD
LOOKING STATEMENTS
Some of
the information in this section contains forward-looking statements that involve
substantial risks and uncertainties. You can identify these statements by
forward-looking words such as "may," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "believe,"
"estimate" and "continue," or similar words. You should read statements that
contain these words carefully because they:
-
|
discuss
our future expectations;
|
-
|
contain
projections of our future results of operations or of our financial
condition; and
|
-
|
state
other "forward-looking"
information.
|
We
believe it is important to communicate our expectations. However, there may be
events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or over which we
have no control. Our actual results and the timing of certain events could
differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as
a result of certain factors, including those set forth under "Risk Factors,"
"Business" and elsewhere in this prospectus. See "Risk Factors."
ORGANIZATION
AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The
following discussion and analysis is based on the audited financial statements
for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 of A.G. Volney Center, Inc.,, a
Delaware corporation (“A.G. Volney,” the “Company,” “our,” or “we”).
All significant inter-company amounts have been eliminated. In the opinion of
management, the audited financial statements presented herein reflect all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for fair
presentation. Interim results are not necessary indicative of results to be
expected for the entire year.
We
prepare our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP), which require that management make estimates and
assumptions that affect reported amounts. Actual results could differ from these
estimates.
Certain
of the statements contained below are forward-looking statements (rather than
historical facts) that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from such forward-looking
statements.
13
We have
had only limited operations since our renewal in July
2003. We have limited assets of $3,086 as of December 31, 2009. In
2009 a majority of the assets were in the form of accounts receivable from
customers that purchased merchandise.
If we are
unable to achieve or sustain profitability, or if operating losses increase in
the future, we may not be able to remain a viable company and may have to
discontinue operations. Our expenses have historically exceeded our revenues and
we have had losses in all fiscal years of operation, including those in fiscal
years 2009 and 2008, and the losses are projected to continue in 2010. Our net
losses were $(4,080) and $(39,067) through the fiscal years ended 2009 and 2008,
respectively. We have a cumulative net loss from March 6, 1997 (Date of
Inception) to December 31, 2009 of $(117,371). We have been concentrating on the
development of our products, services and business plan. There is no assurance
that we will be successful in implementing our business plan or that we will be
profitable now or in the future.
CRITICAL
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The
preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the
amounts reported in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying
notes. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on
various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the
circumstances. However, future events are subject to change, and the best
estimates and judgments routinely require adjustment. The amounts of assets and
liabilities reported in our balance sheet, and the amounts of revenues and
expenses reported for each of our fiscal periods, are affected by estimates and
assumptions which are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for allowance
for doubtful accounts, goodwill and intangible asset impairments,
restructurings, inventory and income taxes. Actual results could differ from
these estimates. The following critical accounting policies are significantly
affected by judgments, assumptions and estimates used in the preparation of our
consolidated financial statements.
GOING
CONCERN QUALIFICATION
In their
Independent Auditor's Report for the fiscal years ending December 31,
2009, Robison, Hill & Co. stated that several conditions and
events cast substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a “going
concern.” We have incurred net loses of approximately $(117,371) from
our inception on March 6, 1997 to December 31, 2009. At December 31,
2009, we had $23 cash on hand, $3,063 in accounts receivable, $0 in inventory
and an accumulated deficit of $(117,371). See “Liquidity and Capital
Resources.”
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At
December 31, 2009, we had $23 cash on hand and an accumulated deficit of
$(117,371).Our primary source of liquidity has been from the sales of common
stock and borrowings from a Joseph C. Passalaqua, a principal stockholder and
Mary Passalaqua a principal stockholder. The Company has generated $40,300 from
the sale of common stock. As of December 31, 2009, we have notes payable to
Joseph C. Passalaqua and Mary Passalaqua, both shareholders in the Company, in
the amount $35,722. These notes bear a simple interest rate of 18%
per annum and are payable upon demand. As of December 31, 2009, the accrued
interest on these notes was $6,387.
Net cash
used in operating activities was $17,035 during the twelve-month period ended
December 31, 2009. This compares to net cash used in operating
activities of $35,453 for the twelve-month period ended December 31,
2008.
Net cash
provided by investing activities was $0 during twelve-month period ended
December 31, 2009. This compares to net cash provided by investing
activities of $0 for the twelve-month period ended December 31,
2008.
14
Net cash
provided by financing activities was $16,229 during twelve-month period ended
December 30, 2009, representing the proceeds from related party notes in the
amount of $16,229. This compares to net cash provided by financing activities of
$35,343 for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2008, representing the
proceeds from related party notes of $27,993 and $(22,950) subtracted due to the
partial repayment on some of these loans in 2008 and the sale of common stock
totaling $30,300.
Our
expenses to date are largely due to professional fees that include accounting
and legal fees. In 2009 there was an extinguishment of debt of legal
fees that totaled $30,000.
To date,
we have had minimal revenues; and we require additional financing in order to
finance our business activities on an ongoing basis. Our future
capital requirements will depend on numerous factors including, but not limited
to, continued progress in finding a merger candidate and the pursuit of business
opportunities. We are actively pursuing alternative financing and have had
discussions with various third parties, although no firm commitments have been
obtained to date. In the interim, shareholders of the Company have
committed to meet our minimal operating expenses. We believe that
actions presently being taken to revise our operating and financial requirements
provide them with the opportunity to continue as a “going concern,” although no
assurances can be given.
REVENUE
RECOGNITION POLICIES
The
Company generates revenues by selling products purchased at a discount. The
Company recognizes revenues in accordance with the Securities and Exchange
Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) number 104, "Revenue
Recognition." SAB 104 clarifies application of U. S. generally
accepted accounting principles to revenue transactions. The Company
recognizes revenue when the earnings process is complete. That is,
when the arrangements of the goods are documented, the pricing becomes final and
collectibility is reasonably assured. An allowance for bad debt is provided
based on estimated losses. For revenue received in advance for goods, the
Company records a current liability classified as either deferred revenue or
customer deposits. As of the year ended December 31, 2009, there was no deferred
revenue.
COSTS
RELATED TO OUR OPERATION
The
principle costs related to the ongoing operation of the
Company’s business
consists of payments made by the Company to wholesale distributors for
merchandise.
NET
LOSS FROM OPERATIONS
We had
net loss after taxes of $(4,080) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 as
compared to a net loss after taxes of $(39,067) for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2008. This decrease in net loss from 2008 to 2009 was due to an
extinguishment of debt in 2009.
WORKING
CAPTIAL
We had
total assets of $3,086 and total liabilities of $66,857, which results in
working capital deficit of $(63,771)for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009
as compared to total assets of $8,262 and total liabilities of $67,953 resulting
in a working capital deficit of $(59,691) as of December 31, 2008.
15
THE
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,
2008
REVENUES
Our total
revenue decreased by $21,661, or approximately 88%, from $24,728 in the year
ended December 31, 2008 to $3,067 in the year ended December 31, 2009. This
decrease was attributable to the decline in demand from our customers for
our products and a decline in sales during the twelve months in 2009 over the
same period in 2008. The sold merchandise consisted of various types
of overstock merchandise, including candles purchased on the
internet.
COST
OF SALES
Our
overall cost of sales decreased by $20,150, or approximately 95%, from
$21,150 in the year ended December 31, 2008 to $1,000 in the year ended December
31, 2009. This decrease in cost of sales was a direct effect of a decline in
total sales during the twelve months in 2009. This decline in demand
lead to the Company purchasing a lower amount of inventory over the previous
period in 2008.
OPERATION
AND ADMINISTATIVE EXPENSES
Operating expenses
decreased by $8,558 or approximately 21%, from $40,015 in the year ended
December 31, 2008 to $31,457 in the year ended December 31, 2009. Operating
expenses primarily consist of general and administrative expenses (G&A),
outside services, organizational costs and professional fees. G&A expenses,
made up primarily of office expense and postage and delivery expenses, decreased
by $1,512, from $2,125 in the twelve months ended December 31, 2008 to $613 in
the twelve months ended December 31, 2009. Outside Services made up stock
transfer services and Outside Services, made up of registered agent fees and
incorporation fees, increased by $ 2,479, from $859 in the twelve months ended
December 31, 2008 to $ 3,338 in the twelve months ended December 31, 2009.
Professional fees, made up of accounting and legal fees decreased by $9,525,
from $37,031 in the year ended December 31, 2008 to $27,506 in the year ended
December 31, 2009. These are fees we pay to accountants and attorneys throughout
the year for performing various tasks. Our expenses to date are
largely due to professional fees that include accounting and legal
fees. In 2009 there was an extinguishment of debt of legal fees that
totaled $30,000.
COMMON
STOCK
Our board
of directors is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock, with a
par value of $0.001. There are an aggregate of 17,330,000 shares of Common Stock
issued and outstanding, which are held by 61 stockholders as of the date of this
Annual Report. All shares of our common stock have one vote per share
on all matters, including election of directors, without provision for
cumulative voting. The common stock is not redeemable and has no conversion or
preemptive rights. The common stock currently outstanding is validly issued,
fully paid and non-assessable. In the event of liquidation of the Company, the
holders of common stock will share equally in any balance of the Company's
assets available for distribution to them after satisfaction of creditors and
preferred stockholders, if any. The holders of our common stock are entitled to
equal dividends and distributions per share with respect to the Common Stock
when, as and if, declared by the board of directors from funds legally
available.
PREFERRED
STOCK
We are authorized to issue 10,000,000
shares of Preferred Stock, with a par value of $0.001. There are 0
shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding as of the date of this form
10-K.

ITEM
7A. QUANTATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET
RISK
Market
risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and rates. The
Company’s market risk arises primarily from the fact that the area in which we
do business is highly competitive and constantly evolving. We face competition
from the larger and more established companies -- from companies that develop
new technology, as well as the many smaller companies throughout the
country.
We face
competition from the larger and more established companies, from companies that
develop new technology, as well as the many smaller companies throughout the
country. For example, the last several years have shown an increase in the use
of larger online sources such as Overstock.com and Ebay.com. These increases cut
into our potential customer base. Companies who have a larger sales force, more
money, larger manufacturing capabilities and greater ability to expand their
markets also cut into our potential customers. Many of our competitors have
longer operating histories, significantly greater financial strength, nationwide
advertising coverage, brand identification and other resources that we do not
have. Our competitors might introduce less expensive or more improved
merchandise. These, as well as other factors, can negatively impact our business
strategy. The competition from larger overstock companies is a very
serious threat that can result in substantially less revenue.
MILESTONES
We have
set the following milestones to implement our business plan.
· Locate suitable retailers to whom we can resell overstock merchandise
purchased by us over the internet. We’ve commenced locating suitable
retailers in May 2006. The Company established three major customers;
Wisteria Antiques, Fountain Treats and Kim’s Country Classics which accounted
for $ 60,917 of the total accumulated sales of $65,414 or 93% of the total
accumulated sales of the Company to date.
· Increase
volume of inventory purchases and resale utilizing retained earnings from the
past 12 to 24 months. The estimated date is December 2010.
To date,
we have not been able to conduct these business affairs without further
capital.
We do not
anticipate hiring any additional personnel or consultants unless and until
further capital is raised.

REPORT OF
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the
Board of Directors and
Stockholders
of A.G. Volney Center, Inc.
We have
audited the accompanying balance sheets of A.G. Volney Center, Inc. (a
development stage company) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related
statements of income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the years
in the two-year period ended December 31, 2009. A.G. Volney Center, Inc.’s
management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our
audits.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to
have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over
financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over
financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our
opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of A.G. Volney Center, Inc. as of
December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of its operations and its cash flows
for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2009 in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the
financial statements, the Company has incurred net losses of approximately
$117,000, has a liquidity problem and has minimal revenues, which raise
substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going
concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also
described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This
summary of accounting policies for A.G. Volney Center, Inc. (a development stage
company) is presented to assist in understanding the Company's financial
statements. The accounting policies conform to generally accepted
accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of
the financial statements.
Nature of Operations and
Going Concern
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting
principles applicable to a “going concern”, which assume that A. G.
Volney Center, Inc. (hereto referred to as the “Company”) will continue in
operation for at least one year and will be able to realize its assets and
discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations.
Several
conditions and events cast doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a
“going concern.” The Company has incurred net losses of approximately
$117,000 for the period from March 6, 1997 (inception) to December 31, 2009, has
an accumulated deficit, has recurring losses, has minimal revenues and requires
additional financing in order to finance its business activities on an ongoing
basis. The Company’s future capital requirements will depend on
numerous factors including, but not limited to, continued progress in finding a
merger candidate and the pursuit of business opportunities. The Company is
actively pursuing alternative financing and has had discussions with various
third parties, although no firm commitments have been obtained. In
the interim, shareholders of the Company have committed to meeting its minimal
operating expenses. Management believes that actions presently being
taken to revise the Company’s operating and financial requirements provide them
with the opportunity to continue as a “going concern”
These
financial statements do not reflect adjustments that would be necessary if the
Company were unable to continue as a “going concern”. While
management believes that the actions already taken or planned, will mitigate the
adverse conditions and events which raise doubt about the validity of the “going
concern” assumption used in preparing these financial statements, there can be
no assurance that these actions will be successful. If the Company
were unable to continue as a “going concern,” then substantial adjustments would
be necessary to the carrying values of assets, the reported amounts of its
liabilities, the reported revenues and expenses, and the balance sheet
classifications used.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Organization and Basis of
Presentation
The
Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on March 6,
1997 under the name Lottlink Technologies, Inc. On July 29, 2003 the
Articles of Incorporation were amended to change the Company’s name to A.G.
Volney Center, Inc. The Company is to serve as a vehicle to effect a merger,
exchange of capital stock, asset acquisition, or other business combination with
a domestic or foreign private business. Since March 6, 1997, the
Company is in the development stage, and has not commenced planned principal
operations. The Company has a December 31 year end.
Nature of
Business
The
Company was formed for the purpose of acquiring products from manufacturers
(factory overruns) and retailers (overstocks) and marketing the lower priced
merchandise to the retail public and wholesalers. It is anticipated that we can
sell the products at a substantial discount below wholesale prices for similar
products.
The
Company’s principal executive offices are located at 124 Lincoln Ave. South
Liverpool, NY 13088. Our telephone number is (315)
703-9012.
Cash and Cash
Equivalents
For
purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid
debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash
equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment
purposes.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company generates revenues by selling products purchased at a discount. The
Company recognizes revenues in accordance with the Securities and Exchange
Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) number 104, "Revenue
Recognition." SAB 104 clarifies application of U. S. generally
accepted accounting principles to revenue transactions. The Company
recognizes revenue when the earnings process is complete. That is,
when the arrangements of the goods are documented, the pricing becomes final and
collectibility is reasonably assured. An allowance for bad debt is provided
based on estimated losses. For revenue received in advance for goods, the
Company records a current liability classified as either deferred revenue or
customer deposits. As of the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, there was
no deferred revenue.
Allowance for Doubtful
Accounts
The
Company recognizes an allowance for doubtful accounts to ensure accounts
receivable are not overstated due to uncollectibility. Bad debt reserves are
maintained for all customers based on a variety of factors, including the length
of time the receivables are past due, significant one-time events and historical
experience. An additional reserve for individual accounts is recorded when the
Company becomes aware of a customer’s inability to meet its financial
obligation, such as in the case of bankruptcy filings or deterioration in the
customer’s operating results or financial position. If circumstances
related to customers change, estimates of the recoverability of receivables
would be further adjusted. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company has
determined an allowance for doubtful accounts is not necessary.
Concentration of Credit
Risk
The
Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such
as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging
arrangements. The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $23 and
$829 as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 all of which was fully covered by federal
depository insurance.

Pervasiveness of
Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles required management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Inventories
Inventories
are valued at the lower of cost or market, with cost determined on a first-in,
first-out basis and market based upon the replacement cost or realizable
value. Inventories consisted of the following amounts.

Loss per
Share
Basic
loss per share has been computed by dividing the loss for the year applicable to
the common stockholders’ by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the years. There were no common equivalent shares
outstanding at December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Major
Supplier
During
the year ended December 31, 2009 the company did not make any
purchases. During the year ended December 31, 2008 one supplier,
Seven Oceans Enterprises, Inc. accounted for 100% of the inventory
purchased. The loss of this supplier would adversely impact the
business of the Company.

Major
Customers
During
the year ended December 31, 2009, one major customer accounted for 85% of the
Company’s revenues. The Company had revenues of $2,602 from Fountain
Treats. The total revenues for December 31, 2009 were
$3,067.
Financial
Instruments
The
Company’s financial assets and liabilities consist of cash, accounts receivable,
and accounts payable. Except as otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that
the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from
these financial instruments. The fair values of these financial instruments
approximate their carrying values due to the short-term maturities of these
instruments.
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of SFAS No.109,
“Accounting for Income Taxes.” SFAS No.109 requires recognition of
deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax
consequences, based on enacted tax laws, of temporary differences between the
financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities.
Reclassification
Certain
reclassifications have been made in the 2008 financial statements to conform to
the December 31, 2009 presentation.
Recent Accounting
Standards
In
October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued
Accounting Standards Update 2009-13 (ASU 2009-13), which provided an update to
ASC 605. ASU 2009-13 addresses how to separate deliverables and how
to measure and allocate arrangement consideration to one or more units of
accounting in multiple-deliverable arrangements. The amendments in this update
will be effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or
materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The
Company is currently evaluating the impact that this update will have on its
Financial Statements.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
In June
2009, the FASB created the Accounting Standards Codification, which is codified
as ASC 105. ASC 105 establishes the codification as the single
official non-governmental source of authoritative accounting principles (other
than guidance issued by the SEC) and supersedes and effectively replaces
previously issued GAAP hierarchy framework. All other literature that
is not part of the codification will be considered
non-authoritative. The codification is effective for interim and
annual periods ending on or after September 15, 2009. The Company has
applied the codification, as required, beginning with the 2009 Form
10-K. The adoption of the codification did not have a material impact
on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.
In June
2009, the FASB updated ASC 855, which established principles and requirements
for subsequent events. This guidance details the period after the
balance sheet date which the Company should evaluate events or transactions that
may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements,
the circumstances under which the Company should recognize events or
transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements
and the required disclosures for such events. ASC 855 is effective
for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The
implementation of ASC 855 did not have a material effect on the Company’s
financial statements. The Company adopted ASC 855, and has evaluated
all subsequent events through February 25, 2010.
In April
2009, the FASB updated ASC 820 to provide additional guidance for estimating
fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have
decreased significantly. ASC 820 also provides guidance on
identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. The
implementation of ASC 820 did not have a material effect on the Company’s
financial statements.
In April
2009, the FASB updated ASC 825 regarding interim disclosures about fair value of
financial instruments. ASC 825 requires disclosures about fair value
of financial instruments in interim reporting periods of publicly traded
companies that were previously only required to be disclosed in annual financial
statements. The implementation of ASC 825 did not have a material effect on the
Company’s financial statements.

In April
2009, the FASB updated ASC 320 for proper recognition and presentation of
other-than-temporary impairments. ASC 320 provides additional
guidance designed to create greater clarity and consistency in accounting for
and presenting impairment losses on securities. The implementation of
ASC 320 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.
NOTE 2 - INCOME
TAXES
As of
December 31, 2009, the Company had a net operating loss carry forward for income
tax reporting purposes of approximately $104,000 that may be offset against
future taxable income through 2029. Current tax laws limit the amount
of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial
change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset
future taxable income may be limited. No tax benefit has been
reported in the financial statements, because the Company believes there is a
50% or greater chance the carry-forwards will expire
unused. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the loss
carry-forwards are offset by a valuation allowance of the same
amount.

income.

NOTE 3 - DEVELOPMENT STAGE
COMPANY
The
Company has not begun principal operations and as is common with a development
stage company, the Company will have recurring losses during its development
stage. The Company's financial statements are prepared using
generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which
contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the
normal course of business. However, the Company does not have
significant cash or other material assets, nor does it have an established
source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to
continue as a going concern. In the interim, shareholders of the
Company have committed to meeting its minimal operating expenses.
NOTE 4 – UNCERTAIN TAX
POSITIONS
Effective
January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No.
48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB
Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and a
measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of
tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits
to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained
upon examination by taxing authorities. The adoption of the provisions of FIN 48
did not have a material impact on the company’s financial position and results
of operations. At January 1, 2008, the company had no liability for unrecognized
tax benefits and no accrual for the payment of related interest.
Interest
costs related to unrecognized tax benefits are classified as “Interest expense,
net” in the accompanying statements of operations. Penalties, if any, would be
recognized as a component of “Selling, general and administrative expenses”. The
Company recognized $0 of interest expense related to unrecognized tax benefits
during 2008. In many cases the company’s uncertain tax positions are
related to tax years that remain subject to examination by relevant tax
authorities.
With few
exceptions, the company is generally no longer subject to U.S. federal, state,
local or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before
2006. The following describes the open tax years, by major tax jurisdiction, as
of January 1, 2009:

ITEM
9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
Not
Applicable.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND
PROCEDURES
The Company's Chief
Executive Officer is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure
controls and procedures for the Company.
EVALUATION
OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our
disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the
time periods specified in the rules and forms of the United States Securities
and Exchange Commission. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer have reviewed the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls
and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rules
13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) as of the end of the period covered by this report and
have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective to
ensure that material information relating to the Company is recorded, processed,
summarized, and reported in a timely manner. There were no
significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could
significantly affect these controls subsequent to the last day they were
evaluated by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer.
CHANGES
IN INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
There
have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting
during the last quarterly period covered by this report that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting.
REPORT
OF MANAGEMENT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting for the company. Internal control over
financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of our financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Internal control over financial reporting includes maintaining records that in
reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation
of our financial statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and
expenditures of company assets are made in accordance with management
authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition,
use or disposition of company assets that could have a material effect on our
financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because
of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not
intended to provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our financial
statements would be prevented or detected.
Although
management did not conduct an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal
control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated
Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the
Treadway Commission, it has concluded that notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Company’s internal controls over financial reporting are sufficient. As noted in
this Annual Report, we have limited resources available. As we obtain additional
funding and employ additional personnel, we will implement programs, such as
Internal Control – Integrated
Framework , to ensure the proper segregation of duties and reporting
channels.
36
Our
independent public accountant, Robinson, Hill & Company, has not conducted
an audit of our controls and procedures regarding internal control over
financial reporting. Consequently, Robinson, Hill & Company expresses no
opinion with regards to the effectiveness or implementation of our controls and
procedures with regards to internal control over financial
reporting.
ITEM 9B. OTHER
INFORMATION .
None.

Currently, the Board has two members. Our executive officers serve at the
discretion of the Board of Directors. There are no family relationships between
any of the directors and executive officers. In addition, there was no

pursuant to which any person was selected an executive officer.

The
following biographies describe the business experience of our directors,
executive officers, managers and key consultants.
David F.
Stever, an officer and director, spent twelve years in customer service
and sales with Allegheny Airlines, and the last six years in a supervisory
capacity. He subsequently formed and ran a travel company which required
substantial negotiation of bulk purchases and sales as well as individual travel
plans. In addition Mr. Stever owned and managed Happy Journey's Travel, Inc. a
travel agency for over 25 years. He has also acted as an officer and director of
the Syracuse Rose Society, an association which purchases bulk for resale to
members and others as fund raisers.
Samantha M.
Ford, an officer and director, has approximately two years experience as
an associate in a major retail chain and two years experience as an assistant
manager at a Thrift Store. Ms. Ford is a high school graduate who worked as a
sales associate in retail chains while still in high school. She also has
bookkeeping and sales experience in the retail trade business. She also received
experience as a cashier for Sam's Club. From the spring of 1999 through the fall
of 2001, she was Secretary for Sigma Alpha Chi sorority while attending college
full-time and holding a part-time job on campus. In 2002, she moved back to
Syracuse, New York and was hired as the assistant manager of the Salvation Army
Thrift Store. Subsequently, Ms. Ford worked for AAA of Western and Central NY as
an Emergency Roadside Assistance Representative. She started a family and was a
stay at home mother from February 2003 through October of 2005. She then
re-entered the workforce and is Secretary of A.G. Volney Center,
Inc. Ms. Ford currently also works part-time for a medical
transportation company.
The Board
of Directors has determined that A.G. Volney does not have a financial expert on
its audit committee due to the small size and scope of the issuer's current
status. The management experience of Mr. Stever requires the exercise
of fiscal management in which degree will be required to manage A.G. Volney
Center, Inc. in its growth over the next two years. Directors are elected
annually or until their respective successors are elected and
qualify

COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(A) OF THE
SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934
Section 16(a)
of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s directors and officers, and persons
who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity
securities, to file reports of beneficial ownership and changes in beneficial
ownership of the Company’s securities with the SEC of forms 3, 4 and 5.
Officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by SEC
regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they
file.
Item 405
of Regulation S-B requires every small business issuer that has a class of
equity securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act to
identify each person who, at any time during the fiscal year, was a director,
officer or beneficial owner of more than 10 percent of any class of equity
securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act that failed to
file on a timely basis, as disclosed in the above forms as well as other
information. From the effective date our Registration Statement on
Form 10-SB (File No.: 0-52269) on December 18, 2006 through December 31, 2009,
our executive officer and directors: David F. Stever (CEO, President and CFO),
Samantha M. Ford (Secretary and Treasurer) and John J. Connelly and the
stockholders listed in Item 12 who beneficially own more than 10% of our common
stock have filed Forms 3, 4 or 5 with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
CODE
OF ETHICS
We have
not adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to our principal
executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or
controller, or persons performing similar functions in that our officers and
directors serves in all the above capacities.
NOMINATING
COMMITTEE
We have
not adopted any procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to
our Board of Directors.
AUDIT
COMMITTEE
Our
Board of Directors acts as our audit committee. We do not have a qualified
financial expert at this time, because we have not been able to hire a qualified
candidate. Further, we believe that we have inadequate financial resources at
this time to hire such an expert.
During
the last fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, no compensation has been awarded
to, earned by or paid to our officers or directors. Management has agreed to act
without compensation until authorized by the Board of Directors, which is not
expected to occur until we have generated revenues from operations. As of the
date of this registration statement, we have no funds available to pay officers
or directors. Further, our officers and directors are not accruing any
compensation pursuant to any agreement with us.
None of
our officers or directors has received any cash remuneration. Officers will not
receive any remuneration upon completion of an offering until the consummation
of an acquisition. No remuneration of any nature has been paid for or on account
of services rendered by a director in such capacity. None of the officers and
directors intends to devote more than a few hours a week to our
affairs..
No
retirement, pension, profit sharing, stock option or insurance programs or other
similar programs have been adopted by us for the benefit of our employees. There
is no understanding or agreement regarding compensation our management will
receive after a business combination that is required to be included in a table,
or otherwise.
39
INDEMITY
The
Articles of Incorporation provide for indemnification to the full extent
permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware for each person who becomes a
party to any civil or criminal action or proceeding by reason of the fact that
he, or his testator, or intestate, is or was a director or officer of the
corporation or served any other corporation of any type or kind, domestic or
foreign in any capacity at the request of the corporation.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to directors or officers pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we are
informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such
indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable.
EMPLOYMENT
AGREEMENTS
The
Company is not a party to any employment agreements.
